What is a blog?  For us it is a short blurb that we write when the mood strikes us.  It can be first person, funny or informative. In short, a blog is whatever we want it to be. Published Sept. 14, 2007 at 7:34 a.m.

FORT ATKINSON, WIS. -- Today I rode all of a mile and a half, down to the miniature golf course behind the bowling alley here in Fort Atkinson. It was grueling. The golf, that is.

Not much else in the way of cycling news...

  • Bill and Satch and Jeremy and I had our hour of glory upon the field of honor and then met Chris at Guanajuato's for lunch.
  • Horchata is a wonderful recovery drink.
  • Discovered that yesterday I sunburned my forehead through the vents in the helmet, giving me the classic "triceratops" look.
  • Rode back to the Carpe and didn't see my car parked out front. Actually thought, "now, where'd I park my car?"
  • Played a show at the best intimate music room on the continent.

It was another good night. Tomorrow, Madison.
